Loudmouth Orange with Milani Mandarina

Did I mention this was the year of Tangerine Tango? Well it’s just another reason for me to wear a bright and hot orange lipstick. I don’t see myself wearing this loudmouth orange often so I didn’t want an expensive one like MAC Morange and this is where Milani Mandarina fills in. Did you notice how they both start with double M’s? Coincidence; maybe!

The colour itself looks just a tad bit softer on application than it appears in the tube. The formula is creamy and smooth with no sparkles! Yeah!!!!!! Does anybody out there have MAC morange to compare?

But enough of those hand swatches, let’s go brave and swipe it on with an otherwise simply done makeup face!

Would you wear this colour? Is it too bright for me? Please share your favourite orange lippies with me! I’m on the hunt for more to share some tangerine tango love!

Hi Dawn! How r u? I can't even remember if i was wearing blush here! but i do find it difficult to photograph. I have to remember to add just a bit more in case the light washes the colour out. In case you're wondering, I found this at Wonderful World. And yes I wanna see how it looks on you!!!!!

Welcome back everyone! Today I'm sharing my replication of the Wilton method to making Royal Icing and some simple decorations you can make with the Wilton tip 21. This is an open star tip and can be paired with a simple leaf tip like a Wilton 352 to make small drop flowers.

In today's yummy post we are doing an easy sponge cake (no creaming of butter and sugar involved). Instead of torting this cake we are using two loaf pans to give us our two layers, which we will pull together with vanilla buttercream. I love the rectangular look of this cake rather than the traditional round or square but more importantly the flavors of the toasted coconut on the sides and fresh fruit on top makes for a mouth watering dessert.
